Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott told reporters to ask Jerry Jones and Micah Parsons whether Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers would offer closure when asked about it earlier this week.
“To me, the closure happened when the trade happened. It will be fun to play against a friend, a great competitor and somebody I know who wants to sack me. It will be fun, that’s up to those guys,” Prescott added.
Now, team owner Jerry Jones has given his two cents on the matter of closure.

“Well, candidly, if closure were an issue, I should have had that discussion with the mirror before I made the trade or as I was making the trade,” Jones said Friday on 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM). “Dak is absolutely right. That’s when all the drama was gone, is when you decided to make the trade.”
Jones went on to say he was “very aware” of the reunion that the trade with Green Bay would set up shortly after.
“To the extent that this game being here adds to, takes away from, does anything as far as this trade is concerned, it doesn’t,” Jones said. “Although certainly I knew that we were going to be competing against [Parsons] pretty quick.”
